What Mach number indicates that a flow can be considered incompressible?
💡 Hint: Remember the threshold for compressibility.
True or False: Incompressible flow means the flow's density can change significantly.
💡 Hint: Think about the definition of incompressibility.

Push your limits with advanced challenges
A tank with a diameter of 2 m is being filled with water at a rate of 0.1 m³/s. Calculate how high the water level rises in the tank after 10 seconds.
💡 Hint: Remember how to convert the volume into height using the tank's area.
For a 0.5 m channel width carrying water at an average velocity of 2 m/s, calculate the flow rate. If the width increases to 1 m, what will the new flow rate be if the velocity remains the same?
💡 Hint: Flow rate changes linearly with the area and velocity.
